Just use a normal spirit level, lift one end of the level to your required angle, mark end of bubble on the glass with a felt tip and there you have it.
It will always give you the same slope / angle.
You need to build each end of the wall plumb though!

Why don't you put a post at where the wall is to start, one where it is to finish and connect them with string?and use a ordinary spirit level to make sure they are level

Your best bet is to use a plumb line or a water level both will work. the plumb line will give you a perfect vertical and the water level will give you a perfect horizontal. The only othe way is a dumpy level or theodolite, and they are not cheap.

From any DIY store on a hill ;) As Joe C says, string and marking out will keep you level as you go downhill (works uphill too lol)

get a normal level and build your wall straight!
step it down as you go down the hill,
if you try to lay bricks on the p1ss then they will slide away.
good luck

I broke the glass on mine but it was irrepairable. I couldn't find the little bubble.
